I'm swimming to save lives and prevent youth suicide

  • This is my first year diving

  • in for youth mental health

This is my first year diving in for youth mental health as part of ReachOut's Laps for Life Challenge.

Suicide is the leading cause of death for young people in Australia. No one should feel alone or without support. I am proud to be a Director of ReachOut and stand alongside so many people who want to do better to support our young people, our future.

This March I'm joining a collective of other business leaders swimming 10km to raise $10,000, to make sure young people in Australia have the mental health support they urgently need.

I used to be a great swimmer, but that as more than 30 years ago. This will be a huge challenge for me but I can do this with your support. By supporting me, you will be helping to prevent youth suicide.

All funds raised will help young people feel better about today and the future, no matter what challenge they're facing.

Thank you for your support.
